Location

Dead in the middle of Sicomoro Street, a short residential stub off of West Alameda. The public nature that made it so convenient rules out the wackier achievements, but I'll be able to snap a couple pictures.

Plans

I (user:Arlo) decided to check geohashing.info mostly out of curiosity rather than expectation, and found out that the hash is within walking distance of me. However, I already have plans to be picked up by car not long after the time I checked, so I'll try to convince the driver to swing over to the hash instead (another time, hobbit achievement).

Expedition

Success! Pretty basic hash because it's zero preparation, but I got what I needed: proof, and a tracklog (see next section). Then I went across town to the Center for Contemporary Arts to see if they really did rip that big installation art structure that was used for skygazing out of the ground, and damned if they didn't.

  The Grin. Kinda more of a smirk maybe.
